Funded Positions Available - University of Texas at Austin

Postdoctoral Researchers, Graduate/Medical Students, and Technicians interested in Spine and Cartilage Development and Disease Research 

Various positions are available in the Gray Laboratory within the Dell Pediatrics Research Institute at University of Texas at Austin Dell Medical School. The primary research focus of these positions will be to create and utilize novel zebrafish and cell culture models to study the genetic susceptibilities of spine and cartilage diseases.  One of the major focuses of the Gray Lab is to utilize modern genetic zebrafish and mouse models coupled with cell culture, transcriptomic, and proteomic approaches to understand the natural history of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis and other musculoskeletal diseases that affect the pediatric population.  Trainees will take a leading role in the execution of a novel F1 genetic screen for genes affecting cartilage development in zebrafish. Postdoctoral and Technician candidates should provide a cover letter, CV, and contact information for three professional references.
